Care Homes for Adults (18-65 years) Page 3 of 7 What we found: We visited the home following receipt of information that people may not be supported properly. We found that people have plans of their care need however sometimes there is not enough detail in plan when it relates to an injury and the support people need while recovering. We looked at the daily recording for one person and found it contained very little information about how one person was progressing during recovery from an injury. We looked at the medication records for two people and we spoke to a member of staff about how medication is ordered. Both records for the people we looked at were properly recorded. When we visited the home the lift had just stopped working and the staff were waiting for the engineer to come and fix it.
